Eliot Gould was a hot star after MASH, etc. He did a
hilariously cynical film with Candice Bergen called "Getting
Straight."
According to IMDB:
"Was a major box office star in 1970 and 1971, but according
to Robert Altman, Gould could not find a job for six months
when Altman hired him for The Long Goodbye (1973). Critic
Hollis Alpert speculated that Gould's anti-heroic character
was extremely popular with campus radicals, and once
radicalism declined around the time of Richard Nixon's
re-election in 1972, his popularity also declined."
I heard LSD kept him ... busy, too.

"The newspaper said the oldest woman in the world had died.
Only time she makes the news, he thought. If you are the
oldest person in the world, guess what. You'll be dead
tomorrow." ~ Sophocles
